I think One Hell of a Band must be in the Dreamscapes TV series. Something about dead rockstars who didn't really die or something? I vaguely remember Elvis turning up in a diner. I really need to watch that series again. It's really worth a look.

The film or the series?
The end of the film is crushing

I didn't know there was a series.

The film, yeah. Not a jolly ending but I got quite bored in the second hour which spoiled things a bit.

The ending of The Mist is miserable as all fuck

Rivalled possibly by The Descent which is also hilariously bleak

It is Stephen King's birthday today.

How many have you seen?

What are the other stories / movies in Different Seasons? I’ve read it, but must’ve been at least 30 years ago.
